High-resolution imaging reveals how polymyxins trigger rapid shedding of bacterial armor
Medicamente
University College London Sep 30 2025 A team led by UCL (University College London) and Imperial College London researchers has shown for the first time how life-saving antibiotics called polymyxins pierce the armor of harmful bacteria. The findings, published in the journal Nature Microbiology , could lead to new treatments for bacterial infections – especially urgent since drug-resistant infections already kill more than a million people a year. Polymyxins were discovered more than 80 years
